There has been a resurgence of interest in recent years in both chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. These perplexing and common clinical conditions are a source of significant patient morbidity and frame one of the more enduring dilemmas of contemporary Western medical thought, namely the ambiguous interface between mind and body.

These issues are synthesized into a pragmatic approach to clinical management.
